For the risk assessment of a satellite to determine whether the satellite tank explodes under the hypervelocity impact, the Walker–Wasley criterion is selected to predict the shock initiation of the satellite tank. Then, the minimum power density of liquid hydrazine is determined based on the tests, the expressions of shock wave pressure and pressure duration are constructed based on the one-dimensional wave theory, and the initiation criterion for the liquid hydrazine tank is established. Finally, numerical simulation and the initiation criterion are adopted to calculate the power density in the satellite tank under the debris impact at the velocity of 10 km/s. The calculated power density agrees well with the simulated power density, they are both larger than the minimum power density, demonstrating that the shock wave generated by the hypervelocity impact is sufficient to trigger an explosion in the satellite tank.

In order to evaluate dynamic deformation behaviors under high strain rates, Kobe Steel has developed and applied a Split-Hopkinson Bar (SHB) apparatus. This paper discusses the validity of the strain measurements and strain rates measured by this SHB apparatus. The strain waves that propagated in the incident and transmitted bars and the specimen are captured using a high-resolution type high-speed photography in detail. The strain wave propagated many times in the incident and transmitted bars and the specimen when the specimen was not broken. The amount of the deformation of the specimen decreases with the propagation frequency of the incident wave. On the other hand, to improve accuracy at the strain and strain rate calculated by the one-dimensional stress wave theory, Young's modulus, the longitudinal wave speed, and the density were accurately determined. It was understood that the calculation value showed the strain and strain rate captured with the high-speed photography are a good agreement. As a result, the validity of the measurement accuracy of this SHB could be shown.

An analytical method based on the wave theory is proposed to calculate the pressure at the interfaces of coated plate subjected to underwater weak shock wave. The method is carried out to give analytical results by summing up the pressure increment, which can be calculated analytically, in time sequence. The results are in very good agreement with the finite element (FE) predictions for the coating case and Taylor’s results for the noncoating case, which validate the method that is suitable for underwater weak shock problem. On the other hand, Taylor’s results for the coating case are invalid, which indicates a potential application field for the method. The extension of the analytical method to q-layer systems and dissipation case is also outlined.

A theoretical attempt to clarify the reason why the compacts of powder media have uniform density distributions as the density of the compacts becomes high, is made for the compaction of the copper powder medium of a simple type by punch impaction. Based on the one-dimensional equation of motion including the effect of die wall friction force, there are two main factors which influence the density distribution of the medium during the compaction process; one is the propagation of the shock wave passing through the medium, while the other is the friction force between the circumferential surface of the medium and the die wall. The equation reveals that the effect of the force increases little as the density becomes high as a result of the repetitive traveling of the shock wave between the punch and plug. The propagation or more definitely the repetitive traveling, on the other hand, increasingly unformalizes the density distribution during the process as the number of the traveling increases. Owing to the aforementioned effects of the two factors on the density distribution during the process, the high density compacts become uniform.

The modified spin-wave theory is used to investigate the one-dimensional Heisenberg ferromagnet with the nearest-neighbor (NN) and next-nearest-neighbor (NNN) exchange anisotropies. The ground-state and low-temperature properties of the system are studied within the self-consistent method. It is found that the effect of the NN anisotropy on the thermodynamic quantities is stronger than that of the NNN anisotropy in the low-temperature region. The anisotropy dependence behaviors (such as the power, exponential and linear laws) are obtained for the position and the height of the maximum of the specific heat and its coefficient, as well as the susceptibility coefficient. The specific heat and its coefficient both display the low-temperature double maxima which are induced by the anisotropies and the NNN interaction. In the very low temperatures the specific heat and the susceptibility behave severally as T[Formula: see text] and T[Formula: see text] at the critical point J2/J1 = −0.25, where J1 and J2 are the NN and NNN interactions, respectively.

A theoretical analysis for the reflected and transmitted waves at an elastic-plastic boundary is presented. The basis of this analysis is the linear elastic wave theory in a hard load-bar and the one-dimensional, strain-rate-independent theory of finite-amplitude plastic waves in a soft specimen. The constitutive relationship during dynamic plastic deformation is an experimentally determined dynamic response function in the soft material. The analysis predicts results that agree very closely with experimental results.

The one-dimensional problem of shock-wave reflexion with relaxation is treated numerically by combining the shock-wave, characteristic, and Rayleigh-line equations. The theoretical results are compared with pressure and density measurements in CO2, and the agreement is found to be excellent.

Several continuum-based shock models have been proposed to understand the dynamic compressive behavior of cellular materials, but they are mainly based on the quasi-static stress–strain relation and thus lack sufficient dynamic stress–strain information. A virtual ‘test’ of irregular honeycombs under constant-velocity compression is carried out using the finite element method. A method based on the optimization of local deformation gradient by using the least square method is employed to calculate the one-dimensional strain distribution in the loading direction of the specimen. Meanwhile, a method based on the cross-sectional engineering stress is developed to obtain the one-dimensional stress distribution in the loading direction. The two typical features of cellular materials under dynamic crushing, namely deformation localization and strength enhancement, can be characterized by the strain and stress distributions, respectively. The results also confirm the existence of plastic shock front propagation in cellular structures under high-velocity impact, from which the shock wave speed can be estimated. The shock wave speed obtained from the local strain field method coincides with that from the cross-sectional stress method. The results of shock wave speed are also compared with those predicted by continuum-based shock models. It is shown that the shock wave speed predicted by the R-PP-L (rate-independent, rigid–perfect plastic–locking) shock model or the R-LHP-L (rate-independent, rigid–linearly hardening plastic–locking) shock model is overestimated, but that predicted by the R-PH (rate-independent, rigid–plastic hardening) shock model is close to those obtained from the local strain and cross-sectional stress calculations using the cell-based finite element model.

The problem of unsteady flow in the blade passage of a partial admission impulse turbine with supersonic nozzle flow is introduced. Previous work carried out at M.I.T. revealed the presence of a shock wave at the entrance to the blade passages and this report sets out to predict the formation of such a shock wave using a one-dimensional theory. The one-dimensional theory is discussed in some detail and a novel method for dealing with the inflow boundary conditions is developed. Details of a characteristic calculation are given, and this is matched with a shock wave analysis to predict the formation of the shock wave. The implications of the theoretical work are discussed and experimental results obtained from a hydraulic analogy are presented which confirm the analysis.
